A Non-Encouraging Update
I learned from Lesley this week that there are 13 albums available for birthmothers to look at. That news compared with the recent news of 2-3 birthmothers due in the spring is not very encouraging. Looks like we just might be waiting a long time. On February 25th, we remembered when we received the news about Kaori. With the passing of that day, we are officially waiting longer for baby #2 than we did for Kaori. Crazy. We were of course told that the second process would not take as long as the first one did. Well, it is taking longer. I know though that is impossible to put an exact wait time on it. So, we hurry up and wait.

Dear Baby
It is the beginning of February and our life is on hold until you come home. Daddy goes to Atlanta to work every week and Kaori and I stay here. Sometimes we go to be with him, but for the most part we are here. You are thought of every day, almost every moment of every day. We pray for you. We pray for your birthmother and birthfather. Even little Kaori has begun to pray for you before she goes to bed each night. We long for our family to be complete and in order. But, I guess it makes sense for our lives to be somewhat chaotic and unsettled since we don't have you yet. When we receive that phone call, we will be overjoyed! I know my heart will pound with love for you. Prayers for your safety while we are apart will dominate my mind. When we prepare our home for you, it will be done with love and excitement to meet you, longing to hold you in my arms. As I wait, my heart is unsettled. It is missing you sweet baby. I cannot wait to hear that you are mine.
Love,
Mama
Love,
Mama
